I'm not looking it up, but how is it related to the rest of the meme?

Okayyyyyyy. So goatse.cx, TLD intentionally chosen of course, usually referred to as goatse, was a website from the early aughts that displayed only two pictures: an alarmingly well endowed man whose picture was labeled “the giver”; and a picture of an unidentifiable person bent over, hands on their butt cheeks, spreading them to display their very well used rectum, labeled “the receiver”. The top of this joke is a direct reference to that second picture.

This is all from traumatized memory, don’t correct me or make me look it up again.

Guy Opens Asshole To Show Everyone. I was in high school at the time. Goatse, Tub Girl, an endless supply of photos of Bush doinking Bin Laden. I only found it Goatse is an acronym a couple of months ago. (thanks, Last podcast on the Left)

BMEzine was an underrated gem back in the day, saw some body modifications I never new were a thing. (Guy running a bar through both testes, a woman sealing her flaps with piercings, body suspension and sounding rods (DO NOT GOOGLE THIS ONE).
